Monitor Relay This signal is true (1) when actuator remote control is not available.<br />

The actuator Monitor Relay status is a composite signal for several<br />

alarms. This signal will be set true if the actuator selector is in Local or<br />

Local Stop (not in Remote) or if the thermostat trips. The mains supply<br />

is also monitored and if one of the three phases is lost this bit is set. If<br />

the actuator is operated from a single phase supply and this is lost<br />

then communications with the actuator will also be lost. Where a 3<br />

phase supply is used, if the phase associated with the control circuits<br />

is lost then communications with the actuator will be lost.<br />

Note:<br />

<br />

Valve Obstructed This bit will be true (1) if the actuator stops in mid travel when not<br />

expected to do so after receiving a command to move. If the actuator<br />

torque exceeds the trip value set during commissioning then the motor<br />

will stop and motion will cease. The reason for the actuator stopping<br />

will be the high torque due to an obstruction and not a ‘Stop’ signal or<br />

reaching the desired setpoint position.<br />

The bit will remain true (1) until the actuator position changes by 2%<br />

or more.<br />

Attempting to restart the actuator to move towards the obstruction (even if the<br />

obstruction no longer exists) is not possible, the actuator will not restart. The actuator<br />

must be electrically reversed away from the obstruction before attempting to continue in<br />

the original direction.<br />

Valve Jammed This bit will be true (1) if the actuator is stationary at the end of travel<br />

and fails to move away from the seat of the valve when a network<br />

command requests it to do so. The actuator will trip on excessive<br />

torque due to the valve being jammed in the seat. The PFU fails to<br />

see movement and reports this status after the time set in the<br />

associated parameter during the PFU set up.<br />

The bit will remain true (1) until the actuator position changes by 2%<br />

or more.<br />

Note:<br />

Attempting to restart the actuator to move out of the seated position is not possible. The<br />

actuator must be reversed before it will run in the same direction again. The jammed<br />

seat must first be released manually before electrical control is attempted. The problem<br />

may be overcome by adjusting the actuator torque setting which is designed to provide<br />

extra power on leaving the seated position.<br />

<br />

<br />

Valve Moving by Hand The manual movement of the valve is reported as true (1) if the<br />

actuator is moved by the handwheel away from the last position. The<br />

percentage of travel required to trip the indication is set in the<br />

associated parameter during PFU set up.<br />

The bit will remain true (1) until the actuator is moved electrically by<br />

either the local controls or a network command.<br />

Moving Inhibited This bit will be true (1) when the Motion Inhibit Timer is active or the<br />

Interrupter Timer is active (IQ/IQT only), or both are active.<br />
